Book Description
As Zin Mignon approached his father’s grave, he buckled in shock. Moments later, he asked, “Mom, who would do such a thing? Dad was just a simple guy who ran a little deli. I mean… Wasn’t he?” Thus begins the fourth book of Zin Mignon, the 13 year-old Chef Extraordinaire. He’s back in Brooklyn, with new recipes and a quest to finally uncover his family history. Ah… but if only his sleuthing skills matched his cooking prowess. So far, Michael Daswick’s sprawling Series has seen young Zin gnaw his way towards the core of his rotten family history: rat-roasting in homeless camps; the squalid orphanages of Russia; Gypsy caves of the Steppes; the Glam of the Sunset Strip; the reclusive mountaintop Abbey of the mysterious Mustard Monks, who conceal their secrets like prized Russian caviar. Join Zin in his most fantastical world-spanning adventure yet. But be warned: food will never taste the same again. In this epic conclusion, the Truth is Served. Will Zin be elated to finally uncover his family saga? Or utterly dashed into doom? Neither Zin, nor the reader, ever expected a shocker like this. And by the way…Who the heck are the Mustard Monks?
